Childcare Mistakes
Part III

Here's a fun one!

Nannies and Parents who do not respect a sleeping child shall have their head cut off.  I came across a family with a child in daycare.  He's almost 2 years old.  The boy is the first one in and the last one out.  That is so heartbreaking to me.  Anyway, I have noticed that the children who attend daycare are developed slower and have the worst sleeping schedule in the world.  I mean what child can get away with taking a 30 minute nap?  So, insert awesome parent who picks up the kid at the last possible second.  What does that awesome parent do?  

They are selfish as hell and love to keep that poor boy awake to hang out with him.  And what does that overtired, beyond exhausted boy do when his parents keep him awake?  Cries and cries and cries.  

Hellooooooo!  Clearly his "bedtime" is not 8:30.  Clearly his bedtime needs to be the second he gets home.  Save your hang out time for the weekends and put that guy to bed!  Nobody likes a crying child.  I guess, unless you're his parents and think it's awesome.  

If you have a daycare child and they whine, cry, and rub their eyes the second you pick them up.  That's a cue for bed time.  Do not keep him awake one more minute.  PUT HIM TO BED.
